Flawless is a dual POV, forced proximity romance. When bull rider Rhett gets caught on mic insulting one of his sponsors, and then punches a reporter who gets in his face about it, his agent is furious. So furious that he assigns Summer to be Rhett's "assistant" (read: babysitter) to make sure he keeps his act clean until after the championship. Summer, new to her father's company and trying to prove that she deserves her spot there, is taking her job seriously. She's determined to be a flawless professional, even with Rhett tempting her to lighten up a bit and take a chance on something with him.

I really enjoyed this book, and I am looking forward to continuing this series. I loved the introduction to Rhett's family and found both main characters relatable. Rhett, who feels overlooked and unsupported, and Summer who is so focused on being a people pleaser that she neglects to prioritize her own happiness. I loved both characters and really loved them together.

The rules were simple: keep his hands off his agent's daughter and stay out of trouble.

But now he's stuck with her. There's only one bed. And well, rules are made to be broken.

Rhett Eaton is the face of professional bull riding. The golden boy. Or at least he was until it all blew up in his face after a public brawl. Now his agent says he has to clean up his image, and sticks Rhett with his ball-busting daughter for the rest of the season as "full-time supervision."

But Rhett doesn't need a goddamn babysitter--especially one with skin-tight jeans, a sexy smirk, and a mouth she can't stop running.

A mouth he can't stop thinking about.

And he quickly learns that Summer Hamilton isn't just another conquest. She sees the man behind the mask, and she doesn't run--she pulls him closer, even when she shouldn't.

She says this means nothing.

Rhett says this means everything.

She says there are boundaries they shouldn't cross. That Rhett's reputation can't take any more hits...and neither can her damaged heart.

Rhett says he's going to steal it anyway.
